    I think Nunn slaps his way to a wide unanimous decision. What do you guys think?

    Yes. Duran would survive and snarl stubbornly but it'd be a comfortable win.

    That's the only logical conclusion to this matter.

    Nunn would run and slap his way to a decision win.

    Roberto is probably a bit small and past his best by 1989. I never rated Nunn's ability to stay out of trouble, but how much offence would Duran be able to mount, probably 10 years past his best, and at such a size and reach disadvantage? Nunn, but again, I can't see it being a great fight.

    Nunn by comfortable decision in a dreadful fight where he guts butted and heeled by an irritated Duran several times
